Sulasailor: I think SV by chosing to use a phrase like 'we are marching on', has deliberately chosen what is otherwise a rather clunky, well worn cliche' and I feel therefore that he deliberately wanted to convey the phrases double meaning.

With due respect, but I disagree. Suresh did not have to hide behind any dubious weasel words to convey a secret message to shareholders, because Subhash already spoke out in the clear what we (or at least the company) can expect in March:

18:52 – Subhash Deshmukh: In the fourth quarter of 2015, we had also planned on initial wafer starts to install our process technology in a foundry. Here, too, through multiple cycles of learning we developed, optimized and installed, on time, a multi-step fabrication flow utilizing the set of equipment and other processes available at the foundry. We had proposed the first demonstration of fully externally processed six inch wafers for both VCSELs and FET functionality in Q1 of 2016. We are on track to delivering this critical objective by the end of this quarter.

BTW, "end of this quarter" = end of March – though not the ides. ;-)
